41 And just then an official of the [Jewish] synagogue named Jairus came to Him and fell at His feet [i.e., worshiping. See Matt. 9:18] and begged Him to go to his house,
42 for the official’s only daughter, who was about twelve years old, was dying. As Jesus was going, large crowds pressed in on Him.
43 Then a woman, who had been bleeding for twelve years, and who had spent all her income on doctors without being healed by any of them,
44 came up behind Jesus and touched the edge of His robe. Immediately her bleeding stopped.
45 Jesus said, “Who touched me?” And when everyone denied [doing it], Peter and the disciples said, “Master, many people are pressing in on you and crowding you.”
46 But Jesus replied, “Someone did touch me, for I perceived that [healing] power had gone out from me.”
47 And when the woman realized that she had not escaped notice, she came trembling [with fear] and fell down in front of Him, declaring before all the people why she had touched Him and how she had been immediately healed.
48 Then Jesus said to her, “Daughter, your faith has made you well. Go in peace.”
49 While He was still speaking, someone came from the synagogue official’s house, saying [to him], “Your daughter is dead; do not bother the Teacher.”
50 But when Jesus heard this, He said [to the man], “Do not be afraid. Just believe [i.e., in my power to restore your daughter] and she will be made well [i.e., restored to life].”
51 And when Jesus came to the [synagogue official’s] house, He did not allow anyone to enter with Him except Peter, James, John and the girl’s father and mother.
52 And all the people [in the house] were crying and beating their chests in mourning, so Jesus said [to them], “Do not cry, for the girl is not [really] dead but [only] sleeping.”
53 And they laughed at Him scornfully, knowing that she was [already] dead.
54 But taking her by the hand, He called to her, saying, “Child, get up.”
55 And immediately her spirit returned and she stood up. Then Jesus ordered them to give her something to eat.
56 Her parents were amazed, but Jesus ordered them not to tell anyone what had happened.
